Is Shortness Of Breath And Chest Tightness Related To Pneumonia?

I have had shortness of breath and a tight chest. I also have been very slowly getting over pneumonia. I also have 6 heart stents. I was very active until pneumonia started in Feb. Is this a condition of my heart or pneumonia. Not all the time just at night.
